Born in Skopje to Bulgarian diplomat Todor Nedkov, Vera and her family immigrated to Sofia after Skopie fell under Serbian control during the Balkan Wars.

In 1923, Nedkova enrolled at the National Academy of Arts, where she studied painting under renowned professor Nikola Marinov. The following year, she transferred to the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts to continue her studies in painting and restoration, graduating in 1930.

Nedkova relocated to Florence, where she studied the art of Giotto, Masaccio, and Piero della Francesca, before returning to Bulgaria in 1934, where she would remain until her death in 1996.

From 1946 to 1961, Nedkova worked at the National Archaeological Museum as a restorator and conservator.[3]

Вера Тодорова Недкова (болг. Вера Тодорова Недкова; 16 ноября 1908, Скопье, Османская империя — 7 июля 1996 София, Болгария) — болгарская художница XX века, живописец, скульптор, график. Получившая художественное образование в Венской академии, свободно говорившая на нескольких европейских языках, Вера Недкова столь же легко осваивала различные стилистические языки в живописи, свободно переходя от неоклассицизма к Neue Sachlichkeit, а от него к экспрессионизму и определённым формам абстрактного искусства.
